SYSTEM ANALYSIS Date : 26.06.2017

1.0 Purpose :
Analysis of a measurement system to understand the sources of variation that can influence the results
produced by the system.
2.0 Scope:
Assessment of Measuring Instruments listed in IMTE/control plan pertaining to AREL.
3.0 Inputs:
IMTE list/Control plan
MSA manual/AIAG

Instruments are divided in to three groups like process
measuring instruments, product measuring instruments and
1 HOD-QA
common instruments (instruments used for both process and QAD-SFS-
product measurements) as per MSA- applicable elements. 22
Instruments used in controlling the process are listed in process
measuring group and instruments used in controlling product

2 measurement are listed in product measuring instruments HOD-QA NA

group and instruments used for both the purposes are listed in
common instruments.
In MSA schedule priority will be given for the instruments
listed in the process controlling group. Characteristics must be
selected from QAD -SFS-
3 a) SCs & CCs while compiling the MSA-applicable HOD-QA 22
elements study
b) From FAR list of jigs to be collected and MSA
applicable elements list will be updated in the plan.
All the applicable elements of MSA for each of the identified
instruments specified in MSA- applicable elements shall be Concerned In-
4
identified and computed. MSA yearly plan will be updated in process Engineer QAD -SFS-
the first week of every succeeding month. 22
The instrument used in controlling the process must have a Concerned In-
5
discrimination that allows for 1/10th of the process variation. process Engineer NA

The instrument used in controlling the product must have a Concerned In-

discrimination that allows for 1/10th of the specification. process Engineer NA
Common instruments must have a discrimination that allows
Concerned In-
7 for 1/10th of the process variation and process variation should NA
process Engineer
be less than specification tolerances.
8 The sample parts must be selected from the process and Concerned In-
represent its entire operating process variation. This will be process Engineer NA
achieved by covering 3shifts or entire production, whichever is
less.

The measurements of the parts must be made in a random Concerned In-

9
order. process Engineer NA
MSA study shall be carried out according to the work

process Engineer
(AIAG) as per latest edition
The appraisers chosen should be selected from those who
normally operate the instrument. I.e. the person with least Concerned In-
11
working experience will be among the appraisers .This will process Engineer NA
also include a change in appraiser.
Attribute Gage study will be conducted for attribute gage study

13 Guidelines for acceptance of gauge R & R: NA

a) Under 10%: Generally Considered to be an acceptable NA
measurement system.
b) 10 to 30% : May be acceptable for some applications NA
(importance of application measurement, cost of
measurement device, cost of rework or repair)
c) Over 30% : Considered to be unacceptable (Every effort
Concerned In-
should be made to Improve Measurement system) and ndc - NA
process Engineer
must be > 5

Instruments which have % R & R < 10 or ndc> 5 will be

14
assessed once in a year. NA
Instruments which have % R & R between 10 and 30 or ndc< 5
15
will be subjected to R & R calculation with an increased NA

frequency i.e., every 6 months or within the financial year,

whichever is earlier.

16 Maintenance Of Instruments
a) The history (General information, calibration, service etc.) Concerned In-
of the equipment will be maintained through IMTE list process Engineer NA
b) In the event of dropped/damaged gauge it will be recorded Concerned In-
as breakdown in Equipment history card. process Engineer NA
c) The instrument will undergo for calibration (or) R&R, if Concerned In-
found rejected the same will be send to servicing for process Engineer NA
rectification. After rectification it will be calibrated and
kept into use.
